Product details

The LP1SK0600SD is a TeSys SK mini contactor from Schneider Electric, built as a 2-pole normally-open (2 NO) device. It's rated for resistive loads in AC-1 utilisation category, carrying 12 A continuously at up to 690 V AC. The coil is 72 V DC, so it fits control circuits that run on a DC bus — common in panel designs where you want to avoid AC hum and keep the coil suppression simple.

The 12 A AC-1 rating is the continuous resistive current it can switch — think heaters, ovens, or lamp banks. That's not a motor rating; AC-3 (motor) current would be lower, so if you're switching an induction motor, this isn't the contactor for that job. Coil pickup is 8...12 ms, dropout is 4...6 ms — fast enough for most sequencing but not a high-speed application. The control voltage limits are 0.85...1.1 Uc for operation and 0.1...0.75 Uc for dropout at <50 °C, so the 72 V coil holds in down to about 61 V and drops out below about 54 V. That's a standard DC margin; just ensure your supply stays above 61 V under load. That's fine for on/off control of a resistive load in a process line, but not for PWM or fast cycling like a welding gun.

It snaps onto a DIN rail (35 mm), and the footprint is 27 mm wide by 56 mm tall by 55.5 mm deep — a compact 2-pole block that fits in a crowded enclosure. The IP2X protection (finger-safe) means it's fine inside a panel but not for exposed mounting. Wire termination is via screw connectors: accepts 0.35...6 mm² solid or flexible (with/without ferrule), and up to two conductors per terminal for daisy-chaining. Tightening torque is 0.8 N.m with a Pozidriv No 1 bit. Heat dissipation is 2.2 W at 20 °C — negligible in a ventilated panel, but worth noting if you're packing dozens of these in a sealed enclosure. The operating temperature range is -20...50 °C, storage is -50...70 °C, and it's rated for 2000 m altitude without derating.

Frequently asked questions

What is the closest alternative to the LP1SK0600SD in the TeSys SK family?

Within the TeSys SK range, the closest alternative would be a different coil voltage variant (e.g., 24 V DC or 48 V DC) or a 1-pole version. The 2-pole 72 V DC coil configuration is specific to this order code; swapping coil voltage means selecting a different SK part number. No direct pin-compatible drop-in exists if the coil voltage must match.

What compliance documentation does Schneider provide for the LP1SK0600SD?

The contactor is certified to EN/IEC 60947-4-1, UL 60947-4-1, and CSA C22.2 No 60947-4-1. The protective treatment conforms to IEC 60068 and DIN 50015. Schneider typically provides a Declaration of Conformity (CE/UKCA) and a UL/CSA file number with the shipment; request the specific document set with your RFQ.

What are the key electrical ratings for the LP1SK0600SD?

Rated operational current (Ie) is 12 A in AC-1 at ≤55 °C. Rated operational voltage (Ue) is 690 V AC 50/60 Hz. Rated insulation voltage (Ui) is 690 V. Conventional free air thermal current (Ith) is 12 A at 55 °C. Rated short-time withstand current (Icw) is 50 A at 55 °C. Coil voltage (Uc) is 72 V DC.
